A Blessing for Sleep
Hong Kong, March 22nd, 2018
When sleep falls, May it be the sleep That comes after a Journey through wild places To the house seen lit through a window from afar. Warmed before a fire Scented in woodsmoke Boots off, socks off, Toes wriggling in delight before the crackle of wood The dance of flame Hot chocolate in your veins, Down soft bed Of white clean sheets The steady sound of heavy rain, on roof and window. |
